CRISPIN & BASILIO

Bomber jackets have always had that really cool vibe alla Tom Cruise in Top Gun and lately they've been catching my eye. They're no longer over sized and icky looking, but instead are refined, sophisticated, really stream lined with a lot of detailing. Recently I came across a jacket from Crispin & Basilio , the name Crispin & Basilio comes from two fictional characters from a 19th century Filipino novel. I love the pleating and wax like sheen on this jacket. Also the neckline can either be wrapped around as a scarf or be worn as a bow, making the jacket look more feminine and less Maverick and Ice.
